I have a diverse career history, with a background in project management & research, working internationally across the sustainability sector, for start-ups, charities and public bodies alike: consulting, delivering workshops, research, and customer engagement. A big part of these roles involved writing press releases, web content and blogs. Since 2020, I decided to hone in on these skills and have been working full time as a Copywriter and Ghost Writer, taking on everything from regular blogs to full 60k non-fiction books.
